It examines how the recognizable songs from the musical help capture audiences and introduce the storyline. There is no voiceover, allowing the lyrics to narrate the story. Key characters are shown being played by famous actors like Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway. Cinematography uses close-ups and shots to set the scene and show emotion. Costumes and settings reflect the time period and themes of conflict in the film. Through these elements, the trailer develops a narrative and creates anticipation to entice audiences to watch Les Miserables.
Music video analysis gotye
The video for Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" portrays a broken relationship through its characters and narrative. The characters' alternative styles and the geometric shapes painted on the male character establish the indie/alternative rock genre. As the video progresses, the characters are shown arguing, revealing their relationship has ended. Iconic images from the 1960s and 1980s, like the female's hairstyle and the painted shapes, blend modern and retro elements. The single setting and characters' vulnerability, portrayed through close-ups and their nakedness against a plain background, convey the emptiness of the broken relationship.
Detailed textual analysis 2
The document analyzes and summarizes key elements of the opening scenes of the film "Seven" that were influential for the author's own film. It discusses how the opening scene starts with a long shot of a detective's bedroom to establish context. It then focuses on a clock close-up to signify a disruption of routine. The title sequence uses messy font over unsettling images to intrigue audiences. Red coloring and dim lighting throughout help set an uneasy tone that prepares viewers for the horrors to come. Background music and diegetic clock ticking build suspense without immediate payoff to heighten tension.
3. research(1)
This document summarizes research conducted on existing film trailers and posters. It analyzes the trailers for Marshall, Goodnight Mommy, All the Money in the World, and the posters for The Silence of the Lambs, The Dark Knight, and Orphan. Common techniques identified include using music to build tension, slow initial editing pace that speeds up, and utilizing color contrast to guide attention. The document concludes it will apply knowledge of these techniques, including rhetorical questions and simple dominant images, in its own trailer and poster designs.
Question 1b
The document discusses how the filmmaker's student film title "Mollie" and use of props like sympathy cards and teddy bears conform to drama film conventions by building suspense without revealing crucial details upfront. Close-up shots of characters' emotional reactions and a setting in a lived-in family home make the story realistic and relatable. Emotional background music further develops tension and emotion in key scenes, mirroring techniques used in drama films like Gone Girl and My Sister's Keeper. Overall, the film follows the typical three-stage structure of equilibrium, disruption, and new equilibrium outlined in Todorov's theory for drama genres, challenging conventions by beginning in the disruption stage rather than showing the initial equilibrium.
Analysis of a film opening
The Mean Girls opening establishes the genre as a comedy through loud punk music playing over scenes showing names and credits on everyday items. This creates a fun, relaxed mood. Photos introduce the characters, showing their styles. The opening ends with school chatter, indicating the setting and intended teenage female audience.
The Furious 7 opening establishes the action genre through a hospital destruction scene and intense soundtrack. It introduces the villain character through his cold demeanor amid the chaos. Popular actors' names appear as the hip hop music plays, placing it in modern times.
The Insidious opening builds suspense through slow, gradual credits over a black background with intensifying violin music. Jump scares and double images increase tension and ambiguity,
